So, the question is what does a sport athlete doing almost each day before an MMA training hard session? Just take a few cups of Joe, if you are “The Natural Born Killer.” Why to pay a local chain when an own company can be created?

Condit seems to have got his inspiration from the sources.

In an interview with the KRQE news, Condit told that “It happened that, I met Ryan, my partner and his pretty wife in a cadaver lab. Here, we were showcasing the doctors how to put arms of people back together and therein we got on the coffee subject,”

Robbie Lawler, former UFC welterweight champion has recently opened up as to why he moved from his longtime gym at the American Top Team in Coconut Creek, Florida.

Lawler, who spoke to Brett Okamoto – Mixed Martial Arts reporter on the 5ive Rounds Podcast noted that he left because the time had come for him to leave.

Carlos Condit contemplated on making it the end of his career, having lost to Robbie Lawler at the beginning of the year.

Now it appears that he may be even closer to hanging up his four-ounce gloves for good.

Nevertheless, the evening did not go as planned, as “The Natural Born Killer” was overwhelmed by the grappling of Demian Maia and tapped to a rear-naked choke 1:52 into the first round of their main event clash.

Condit managed to land only one significant strike before succumbing to Maia. It was a far cry from his previous outing against Lawler, a bout many thought he won and is one of the frontrunners for “Fight of the Year” for 2016. Read the rest of this entry »
